1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION The Orbinox model Aluminum Stop Log is designed for open channel installations for temporary isolation and flow control. Stop Logs are ideal for maintenance and repair works or flood control and diversion. The logs are made of extruded aluminum and are very easy to handle due to their light weight. The logs are stacked on top of each other in the frame guides. The water level is controlled by adding or removing logs. The sealing system is bidirectional (suitable for flows in either direction) and allows to achieve very low leakage rates. The frame can be made of aluminum or stainless steel and it can be designed to be embedded in concrete, wall mount or face mounted in a existing channel. -1 ORBINOX CANADA, ORBINOX U, ORBINOX BRAZIL, ORBINOX SPAIN, ORBINOX UK, ORBINOX FRANCE, ORBINOX GERMANY, ORBINOX INDIA, ORBINOX CHINA, ORBINOX S.E.A.

DESIGN FEATURES Log Design: Extruded aluminum logs (EN-AW 6063 T6) for easy handling. Stackable logs: water level can be controlled by adding or removing logs.

2 DESIGN FEATURES Log Design: Extruded aluminum logs (EN-AW 6063 T6) for easy handling. Stackable logs: water level can be controlled by adding or removing logs. Three different log sizes available to always find a solution to the specific channel width and flow control requirements. Logs can be connected together to handle them simultaneously. For instance, two B type logs can be connected, achieving a single log of 300mm height. Log Type A B C Log Height, h (mm) Log Depth, c (mm) Log Weight (kg/m) 7,9 7,3 11,2 Frame Design: Stainless steel or aluminum frame guides. Mounting options: embedded in concrete, wall mount or face mounted in existing channel. Sealing system: Bidirectional self adjusting seal to control flow in either direction. Vertical seals are placed on the frame guides. Horizontal seals are placed at the top of each log to prevent leak between logs. HMWPE guides are placed on the frame guides to assure no metal-to-metal contact between the frame and the logs, which reduces friction during operation and extends seal life.

MOUNTING OPTIONS The following drawings show the most common mounting options for Aluminum Stop Logs. For other mounting options please contact an ORBINOX representative.

The lifting device, which is connected to a crane, fits into both lateral frame guides and hooks and releases the logs (via lifting pins) remotely and semi-automatically.

4 MOUNTING OPTIONS The following drawings show the most common mounting options for Aluminum Stop Logs. For other mounting options please contact an ORBINOX representative. EMBEDDED IN CONCRETE (EC) For heavier logs, or when access is difficult, ORBINOX offers a lifting device. The lifting device, which is connected to a crane, fits into both lateral frame guides and hooks and releases the logs (via lifting pins) remotely and semi-automatically. Logs can be connected together to lift them simultaneously. There is also available a locking device. It is used to lock the logs in position once the proper log arrangement has been achieved. Lifting Device: WALL MOUNTED (WM) IN EXISTING CHANNEL (FM) Hand Pole: ORBINOX offers different lifting solutions to safely and effectively handle the logs. When the weight of the log is lower than 25kg, it can be handled with a lifting pole. The lifting pole fits in the frame guide and it is guided to easily hook the log.

5 INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE (IOM) This section briefly describes the installation, operation and maintenance of Aluminum Stop Logs. For more detailed information please refer to the IOM Manual. Installation: A) Embedded in Concrete (EC): the stop log shall be perfectly centered in the concrete recess prior to embedding in concrete. B) Wall Mount: the Aluminum Stop Log is installed by means of mechanical anchor bolts and construction sealant (Sikaflex 11FC or equivalent). C) Face Mounted in Existing Channel: the Aluminum Stop Log is installed by means of mechanical anchor bolts. All the gaps shall be grout filled afterwards and shaped ir order to assure a smooth transition. The minimum concrete strength shall be 20.7Mpa. The tolerance of the concrete construction (flatnees, levelness, and plumbness) shall be in accordance to Din For detailed information about the type, size and quantity of the required anchor bolts or other installation materials, please refer to the General Arrangement Drawing. Maintenance and Operations: ORBINOX Aluminum Stop Logs need practically no maintenance. Seals shall be replaced in case of damage. ORBINOX recommends the use of a lifting device for pullout-forces over 50kg (25kg each person). The pull-out-force depends on the weight of the log and the water head at which we are operating.
